Get a new email address if you want it to stop. These days you need at least two email accounts - one for corresponance that you keep private and one for internet use. On top of that you need spam filters.

Spam filters are the key. If it were not for OjaiNet's spam filters I would be getting many HUNDREDS of spams per day. When the filter is working (probably 99.9% of the time) I only get 2 or 3 a day. But if it goes down my e-mail is almost useless for the period which it is down because I can't sort the good from the bad... I figure if I get more junk mail in my actual mail box than I do in my e-mail box, I can't complain...

Now what I really hate are the junk phone calls. I got one at 6:00am this morning from some damn Indian guy saying I am pre-approved for some credit card. THANKS ASS HOLE! Do they think this attracts customers?

My IP finally put in a spam blocker. Only thing is I have to go into their site to delete the messages or my folder fills up and I don't get any.

I have Qurb on this machine...what dosen't get caught by my IP is trapped by it. Only bad thing with it is if your not in my address book, your message dosen't get thru either.
